Q: You are designing your Dynamic DNS network infrastructure.
You network contains five physical and logical subnets, all of which are
separated by 128Kbps ISDN WAN links. You want to optimize your host name
resolution scheme, so you have decided to deploy a DNS Server on each of the
segments.

The network clients consist of a mix of Win9x, Win 3.x,
Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 computers. All network clients will participate
in the same Windows 2000 domain. You also want all network clients to have their
names and IP addresses automatically entered into the DNS, without you having to
ever manually configure entries in the DNS database yourself. You also want your
configuration to be fault tolerant, so that in the event that a local DNS Server
should become unavailable, the client will still be able to register is IP
addressing information.

Which of the following should you do in order to attain your
goals? [Choose all that apply]

Create 5 Standard Primary DNS Servers and configure the all
the network clients to register both their Host (A) Address information and
Pointer (PTR) record information with their local DNS Server. Place one DNS
Server on each subnet.

Create 1 Standard Primary DNS Server and 4 Secondary DNS
Servers. Configure each network client to automatically register its Host
(A) record information and Pointer (PTR) record information with its local
DNS Server. Configure each DNS Client with the IP address of all DNS Servers
on the network and place the local DNS Server on the top of the list. Place
one DNS Server on each segment.

Create 5 Active Directory integrated DNS Servers. Configure
all network clients to automatically register its Host (A) addressing
information and its Pointer (PTR) address information directly with its
local Active Directory integrated DNS Server. Configure each DNS Client with
the IP address of all DNS Servers on the network and place the local DNS
Server on the top of the list. Place one DNS Server on each segment.

Create 5 Active Directory integrated DNS Servers. Install
and configure a Windows 2000 DHCP Server and make all computers on the
network DHCP clients. Configure the DHCP Server to enable updates for DNS
clients that do not support dynamic update. Configure the DNS clients with
the IP addresses of all the DNS Servers on the network and place the local
DNS Server on the top of the list. Place a DNS Server on each segment.
